Standard Industrial press braking systems have full tonnage along the stroke and throughout the length of both the bed and the ram. Standard Industrial press brakes also have better repeatability than dual cylinder brakes. Dual cylinder brakes require complicated hydraulic systems in order to balance their tonnage. Competitor press brakes require extensive labor and parts over their lifetime. Parts and labor costs that businesses can only obtain from the manufacturer are exorbitant.

High productivity, heavy-duty bending performance, and intuitive operation – all in a cost-efficient package

Hydraulic Press —

Our Servo Hydraulic Press Brakes can bend metal with up to 66% less power consumption at stand-by and 44% less energy use during the bending cycles. Our servo braking system is powered by AC Servo motors. These motors drive hydraulic oil on demand in conjunction with variable speed pumps. Our advanced technology ensures that our servo presses have a significantly lower price per part. We use only the most powerful electronic, electric and hydraulic power when it is needed. You won't find any quieter, less energy-intensive or more accurate press brake.

This type bending is most common for sheet metal workers as it is compatible with machines with smaller capacities.

And then there are the BH series “hybrid” press brakes that prove once and for all that not all hybrid press brakes are created equal. These third-generation machines utilize their patented dual-drive design to bring you the best of both hydraulic and electric bending worlds: productivity, precision, high-speed movement, reliability, and superior energy savings—even when compared to other hydraulic, hybrid, and even electric pulley-style press brakes.

An early generation of press brakes used one axis to bend. They were much less powerful than modern machines with twelve or more programable axes. Modern press brakes are precise and generate graphical representations for the operator. Also, the setup time for newer computers has been dramatically reduced. They are capable of quickly calculating optimal settings based the material being used, its dimensions, as well as the desired results. These calculations used be done manually in the past.

This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long term, high speed, energy-efficient operation.

Air bending allows sheet metal to bend by using the edges of the V and the end of the punch. This type of bending creates a spring back effect on the work piece. The bending force of the sheet is less so the metal sheet will spring backwards when the punch is removed.

Our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes are designed using the CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control which is the latest technological advancement in Press Brake designs and utilizes a blast system that removes rust from the work-piece surface. Because it is run on Servo Electric systems, our range of advanced dual bending machines function purely electrically. They require no form of hydraulic oiling and energy consumption is minimal.

Most press brakes work in the middle of the press. Standard Industrial press brakes can be used to apply substantial force at the ends of the brake when they are not designed for center loading.

There are two methods that press brakes can bend steel. The first, or bottom bending, is when the ram presses metal to the bottom. Bottom bending can produce precise bends and is less dependent on the press brake. The problem is that each tool is designed for a specific type of bend. You will need to purchase a brand new tool for each angle. Air bending creates an air pocket between the die's bottom and the ram. This allows the operator flexibility in accommodating any spring back provided by the material. These types are only necessary to be replaced if the material is too thick. The drawback of air bending is its inability to accurately bend the material. This means that the ram will need to be changed accordingly.

No matter what your bending requirements, the BH series can help you make sure power, precision and profit are always within reach.

Warning: incorrect tonnage, which is too high or low, can cause damage or irreparable injury to your press brake. Refer to the manual or a table to calculate the weight of your press brake.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hydraulic brake failures are most common due to either loss of hydraulic pressure, or brake fade on steep hills.

Hydraulic presses can be used for forging and clinching, moulding blanking, punching as well as metal forming operations like deep drawing and blanking. Hydraulic presses can also be used for rubber pad forming and powder compacting.

Crowning is the method by which press brakes correct for deflections in both the upper beam or lower bed when pressure applies. There are different methods, depending on the model and make of the press brake.

Hydraulic disc brakes have superior performance and efficiency due to the lack of a mechanical cable. The fluid system works better than a steel cable, which can be more susceptible to wear and more vulnerable to the elements.
